> How much can an organization be fined for a GDPR violation? The GDPR allows the EU's Data Protection Authorities to issue fines of up to €20 million ($24.1 million) or 4% of annual global turnover (whichever is higher).
- eitland 5y agoImportantly however they'll often first contact the company to ask them to fix the problem first instead of going straight to fines.
